    • Start date - the task start date
    • End date - the task end date
    • Label - the task label
    • Hover - the task hover text
    • Milestone - an element which stores value of 0 or 1 which defines whether the task is rendered as a milestone
    • Depends on - a Database join element which enables the user to define which tasks must be completed before this task can be started.

    Processes​

    You can also group tasks in 'processes', for example a task may belong to a project, in which case you can set the 'process' to be the project element.

    Example​

    Lets say we have a 'tasks' list with the following data:

    With the settings that you can see in the previous screen shots the Gantt chart will appear as follows.
